Adding a NAS-server for MythTV.

To get more storage and perhaps secure the data a bit more - so I decided to buy a ReadyNAS Duo, when Dustin A/S got it on offer.

Normally setup instrucktions are found here - will not doublepost.
Mostly you'll just need to change some different params in the /etc/fstab file for getting this to work easily. I've changed my mainsetup on the CORE-server from

####################################################
# My shared discs for use in my MythTV system
####################################################
/storage/movies 172.16.20.1/24(rw,sync,subtree_check)
/storage/music 172.16.20.1/24(rw,sync,subtree_check)
/storage/pictures 172.16.20.1/24(rw,sync,subtree_check)
/storage/records 172.16.20.1/24(rw,sync,subtree_check)

To this:

####################################################
# My shared discs for use in my MythTV system
####################################################
/storage/music 172.16.20.1/24(rw,sync,subtree_check)
/storage/pictures 172.16.20.1/24(rw,sync,subtree_check)
/storage/records 172.16.20.1/24(rw,sync,subtree_check)

And added the line in /etc/fstab instead as normally mounted Networkdrive - Unfortunably this gives some delyas when starting the system up - but hey - we're running Linux - do not need the restart. :-)

##################################################################
# NAS-SERVER
##################################################################
172.16.20.5:/movies /storage/movies nfs rw 0 0

And that was almost that - Enjoy ussing the NAS-server for storage use in your MythTV System!
